I was taught to fly tail-draggers in the UK. I was not taught wheel-landings.
On checking out on a tail-dragger (a PA18-150, as it happens) in the US, I was taught wheel-landings. Including, as I said in my earlier posts, wheel-landings in cross-winds well in excess of the max demonstrated cross-wind. It was only then that I realised just how lacking my original training was.
I vowed that when I become an instructor and do tailwheel conversions myself, I will never sign anyone off unless they can do a wheel-landing, assuming they are flying an appropriate aircraft. (I'd disagree with Chuck about there being no aircraft which can't be wheeled on, but the only reason I can think of would be limited prop clearance such as that on the Europa mono-wheel, and, I believe [but I've not had the pleasure of trying it myself yet] some Sukhois. Chuck, do you have any thoughts on that?) Now I'm an instructor, and although I've not yet done any tail-wheel conversions (my boss refuses to buy a tail-dragger no matter how much I pester him about it!) I still stick by this.
